I try to telnet to our server. Telnet not recognised. I go to Control Panel ... "Turn Windows features on or off" to enable it. Window is blank. I do some searching and come across this.
The CheckSUR log is full of entries relating to a failed update to do with fixing daylight saving time settings, none of which were fixed. I spend an hour going through the registry deleting all references to KB976098. Now the list is populated in "Turn Windows etc". Great. I tick the box for telnet ... and get "An error has occurred. Not all of the features were successfully changed".
I have had enough now and I am going home.

I am a bit stumped now, and so is my IT colleague, so I'm looking for ideas. As per the first post, after a certain time browsing, I can't access any websites, even our intranet. I can browse the network, telnet to the server, and can even ftp to external sites. Turning the firewall off and trying another browser makes no difference. All I can do is reboot, but it takes ages after I click Restart for anything to happen. Normally it is very quick.
At my colleague's suggestion, I tried a LSP fix. This says there are no problems.
It all looks like there is something low level on my machine which is stopping http traffic, but only http. Any ideas?

If it's SATA (likely) then USB/SATA adapters are cheap and easy to use. Got one the other day which included a separate power supply for under a tenner delivered.

If it helps, another symptom I see when http access stops is that when I close Firefox it still shows up in the Task manager processes tab. End process doesn't kill it.

I have also found this (third reply), which might be worth a go.

Would Wireshark help? I haven't used it before, but I think if I start a capture on this network it could be two or three hours before http fails again, and the log will be huge. What is the bare minimum I could monitor?
